I too have always liked the ideas of themes which cross borders of mac and win...

but this is nothing new, there is various styles out there which do similar things...such as use a windows flag instead of an apple in a tiger style...etc...sorry I have no links to give.

the trouble with the idea is you never know where to draw the line between tiger and luna, people will argue that the visual style will be too much macish or too much windowsish, its hard to make a comprimise.

I suggest If you want your idea ahead, you create a website dedicated to making themes which combine both tiger and luna elements...that way you'll get a wide range of mac/win style selection.

If you're looking for some dominantly windows themes which have elements of mac styling (gel bars etc) I suggest searching;

* Royale

* Vista

* Longhorn

Longhorn and vista styles are inspired or based on the new Windows to be released (just encase you didnt know) which is becoming more macish as time goes on. Royale is a luna style theme that has been polished up and made shiney...

I think you will enjoy these themes...if you havent already.

oh right a vs with two faces lol

lol...so you dont want to mix styles, just have a visual style that is distinctly half and half...

well...I think thats impossible because visual style elements (eg- the taskbar) stretch from one side of the screen to the other...I dont think its possible to have half the taskbar luna and the other half tiger, because it has to be all made by one single texture...but then again I could be wrong.

I don't think I'd really want my screen split half and half like that..
